Bhilwara, Aug 2: Assam Governor Shiv Charan Mathur has dispelled a general belief about harassment of Marwaris in his bordering Northeastern state and said the community was comfortable and doing well there.

Mr Mathur said there was a wrong belief among people in the country that Marwaris were victims of harassment in the hands of terrorists or locals. Barring exceptional instances, they were neither being harassed nor terrorised, rather they were all comfortable and doing good business, the Governor said.

''Rather they have evolved an effective modus operandi for themselves for doing assured business by forging business partnerships with locals,'' Mr Mathur pointed out.
